robri: <br /> <br />I hope your dinner train isn't like the one we have up here in Stillwater, MN. <br />We have the "Minnesota Zephyr", and while the food was good and the <br />equipment was well-maintained, the train itself goes NO PLACE (max. 8 <br />MPH over some obscure former MILW branch trackage), and while that <br />alone isn't so bad (at least you do see some nice country, ever so briefly), <br />they have a quartet of singers going car-to-car singing 1940s war tunes <br />acapella. For those of us who weren't alive during WWII it can get real <br />old, real quick. Combine that with the fact that you and your date HAVE to <br />be seated with two other people you don't know who are practically in your <br />lap for the 3 hr. ride. They don't do seating for two - nope. Sitting with two <br />of the most boring individuals ever to have lived their entire lives in Little <br />Falls, MN somehow made the trip not worth the $65/per dinner fair.
